This app provides an offline version of Learner's Thesaurus
The English language is peculiarly rich in synonyms. It has incorporated so many Latin, Greek, French, etc into its vocabulary so that it often has two or more words for an idea. This abundance of synonyms enables us to express varying shades of meaning.
Do you know what is the difference between "get", "obtain", "secure", "acquire", and "gain"? When to use "allay", "relieve", "alleviate", "lighten", "assuage", "mitigate"?
This app will help you to distinguish between synonyms such as "prevent", "hinder", "preclude", "forestall", "obviate". Each entry will show a list of synonyms and discuss their origin and their usage in different context.
If you are preparing for GRE, ACT or SAT exam, this app will help you to achieve high score on verbal test.
